Senator John McCain has adopted an annoying Bush habit — insisting that something is true because he says it is.
Latest example: "I know how to win wars."
We cats find this statement generally amusing, mostly because Senator McCain made it in the midst of a recent, breathless rhetorical catch-up. The presumptive Republican nominee was forced to agree with Senator Obama's declaration that Afghanistan is the central front on the war on terror and that the U.S. should increase its troop levels there.
So, yes, Senator McCain was caught well behind the curve on that important question. But, "I know how to win wars"?
Excuse us, but this assertion is based exactly on what, Senator? The war you fought in? Because the last we checked, Viet Nam went Communist in the Seventies.
Doesn't sound like much of a win to us.
